Description

Information sending and receiving method and device Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present application relate to the field of communication technologies. Background Art

[0002] The 3GPP R18 air interface artificial intelligence / machine learning (AI / ML) project defines multiple scenarios or sub-scenarios, such as CSI enhancement (which may also include at least one sub-scenario of CSI compression and CSI predication), beam management, positioning or other scenarios. The 3GPP R19 AI / ML-based mobility project considers new scenario types, such as normal switching, conditional switching, and layer-triggered mobility (L1 / L2 triggered mobility, LTM). Different scenarios or sub-scenarios can correspond to one or more features / feature groups. Applying AI / ML to the above feature / feature group is called AI / ML-based / enabled feature / feature group. An AI / ML-based / enabled feature / feature group can correspond to one or more AI functionality and / or one or more AI models.

[0003] To obtain the corresponding model, data-based model training is required. Accordingly, the model training network element needs to obtain the corresponding AI-related data. This AI-related data can be at least one of L1 and / or L3 measurement results and ground truth. For the above scenarios, the model training network element needs to collect at least one of the corresponding L1 and / or L3 data and ground truth. The measurement result information includes at least one of the following information: reference signal receiving power (RSRP), reference signal receiving quality (RSRQ), reference signal strength indicator (RSSI), signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR), channel quality indicator (CQI), precoding matrix indicator (PMI), CSI-RS resource indicator (CSI Reference Signal Resource Indicator, CRI, CSI reference information resource indicator), SS / PBCH block resource indicator (SSBRI), layer indicator (LI), rank indicator (RI), precoding matrix (Precoding matrix), raw channel matrix, right singular vectors of the channel matrix, scalar quantization information (Scalar quantization information), quantization), codebook-based quantization, or other signal quality information. A true value refers to a measured value that can serve as a benchmark. Generally speaking, a true value is a relative concept, meaning it is a value obtained using a relatively reliable measurement method.

[0004] Taking the CSI enhancement scenario as an example, the model training network element needs to collect at least one of the following data: channel quality indicator (CQI), precoding matrix indicator (PMI), CSI-RS resource indicator (CSI Reference Signal Resource Indicator, CRI), SS / PBCH block resource indicator (SSBRI), layer indicator (LI), channel matrix, right singular vectors of the channel matrix, rank indicator (RI), L1-RSRP, L1-SINR, true value or other L1 measurement result information. Taking beam management as an example, the model training network element needs to collect at least one of the following data: precoding matrix, original channel matrix, scalar quantization information, codebook-based quantization information, beam measurement result information, true value or other measurement result information.

[0005] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is merely intended to provide a clear and complete description of the technical solutions of this application and facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art. Simply because these solutions are described in the background technology section of this application, it should not be assumed that the above technical solutions are well known to those skilled in the art.

[0050] In the embodiments of the present application, a scenario involving network devices and / or terminal devices is taken as an example.

[0051] In the above scenario, the network device may include at least one of a core network device, a third-party application device, an operation administration and maintenance (OAM), and an access network device.

[0052] The core network device may refer to a device in the core network (CN) that provides service support for the terminal device. As some examples, the core network device may be at least one of the following: a mobility and management entity (MME), an access and mobility management function (AMF) entity, a session management function (SMF) entity, a user plane function (UPF) entity, a location management function (LMF) entity, and the like, which are not listed here one by one. Among them, the AMF entity may be responsible for the access management and mobility management of the terminal, the SMF entity may be responsible for session management, such as the establishment of a user session, and the UPF entity may be a functional entity of the user plane, mainly responsible for connecting to the external network. The LMF entity may manage the overall coordination and scheduling of resources required for the location of the terminal device registered with the core network device or accessing the core network device. It should be noted that in the embodiment of the present application, the entity may also be referred to as a network element or a functional entity, such as the AMF entity may also be referred to as an AMF network element or an AMF functional entity, and so on.

[0053] The third-party application device can be an OTT service (over the top server) or other third-party device.

[0054] OAM is a network device that performs operations, management, and maintenance on the network according to the actual needs of the operator's network operations.

[0055] The access network device is an access device that the terminal device uses to access the communication system wirelessly. The access network device can be a base station (BS), an evolved NodeB (eNodeB), a transmission reception point (TRP), a base station (next generation NodeB, gNB) in the fifth generation (5G) mobile communication system, a base station in the sixth generation (6G) mobile communication system, a base station in a future mobile communication system, or an access node in a WiFi system. The access network device can also be a module or unit that completes part of the functions of the base station. For example, it can be at least one of the following modules or units: a centralized unit (CU), a distributed unit (DU), a centralized unit control plane (CU control plane, CU-CP), a centralized unit user plane (CU user plane, CU-CP), an integrated access backhaul (IAB) or other modules or units. The embodiments of the present application do not limit the specific technology and / or specific device form adopted by the access network device. The access network equipment can be deployed on land, including indoors / outdoors, and can be handheld or vehicle-mounted; it can also be deployed on the water, on an airplane, on a balloon or on a satellite; the access network equipment can be deployed in a fixed location or on a mobile carrier, and the embodiments of the present application do not limit this.

[0056] In the above scenarios, a terminal device can be a device with wireless transceiver capabilities that can send signals to and / or receive signals from an access network device. A terminal device can also be referred to as a terminal, mobile station, or mobile terminal. A terminal device can be a mobile phone, tablet, or other device with wireless intelligent transceiver capabilities. Terminal devices can be widely used in various scenarios, such as device-to-device (D2D), vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication, machine-type communication (MTC), the Internet of Things (IoT), virtual reality, augmented reality, industrial control, autonomous driving, telemedicine, and various smart scenarios.

[0057] In the above scenarios, access network devices and terminal devices, and terminal devices and terminal devices can communicate via licensed spectrum, unlicensed spectrum, or both. The embodiments of this application do not limit the spectrum resources used for wireless communications.

[0058] In the following description of this application, artificial intelligence (AI) may also be referred to as artificial intelligence / machine learning (AI / ML) or machine learning ML. These terms are interchangeable. For example, "AI-based feature or feature group" and "AI- or ML-based feature or feature group" have the same meaning, and their corresponding English terms can be AI / ML-based feature / FG.

[0059] In the above scenario, if the collected data is classified, for example, based on the auxiliary information when the data is generated, the model training device can train a more suitable model for the scenario corresponding to the auxiliary information, thereby obtaining higher model performance. Generally speaking, auxiliary information can be used to indicate the configuration information and / or environmental information when the data is generated. It can be understood that auxiliary information can be divided into two categories: network-side auxiliary information and terminal device-side auxiliary information. In the existing mechanism, there is no corresponding solution for the specific content of the auxiliary information and the collection / reporting mechanism of the auxiliary information.

[0060] To address at least one of the above problems, embodiments of the present application provide a method and apparatus for sending and receiving information.

[0061] The following describes embodiments of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings and detailed descriptions. For ease of description, the following description uses a base station as an example of an access network device. In the following description, "if," "under the circumstances," and "when" can be used interchangeably to avoid confusion.

[0062] Embodiments of the first aspect

[0063] An embodiment of the present application provides a method for sending and receiving information, which is described from the perspective of a terminal device.

[0064] FIG1 is a schematic diagram of a method for sending and receiving information according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG1 , the method includes:

[0065] 101: The terminal device receives first information sent by the first device;

[0066] 102: The terminal device reports terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information to the first device according to the first information.

[0067] It is worth noting that FIG1 above only schematically illustrates an embodiment of the present application, and the present application is not limited thereto. For example, other operations may be added or some operations may be reduced. Those skilled in the art may make appropriate modifications based on the above content, and are not limited to the description of FIG1 above.

[0068] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device sends terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information to the first device based on the first information sent by the first device, so that the first device can better classify the received artificial intelligence-related data according to each auxiliary information, thereby training a more targeted model; and the first device can determine the applicable information of the trained model based on each auxiliary information, so that the model is deployed as much as possible in the configuration and / or environment indicated by the applicable information, thereby obtaining better model reasoning performance.

[0069] In some embodiments, the first device may be an access network device. For example, the first device is an access device that a terminal device uses to access a communication system wirelessly. For specific details about the "first device", please refer to the above introduction to the "access network device", which will not be repeated here.

[0070] In some embodiments, the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information includes at least one of the following information: terminal device (UE) environment information and / or configuration information; network device (NW) environment information and / or configuration information; terminal device (UE) location information; and identity information of the terminal device (UE) and / or network device (NW).

[0071] The following is a detailed description of the specific content of "terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information":

[0072] In some embodiments, the terminal device (UE) environment information and / or configuration information includes at least one of the following information: speed information of the terminal device; computing speed information of the terminal device; service cell information of the terminal device; and channel model information between the terminal device and the network device.

[0073] For example, the speed information of the terminal device is used to indicate the speed information determined by the terminal device, which can be instantaneous speed information or average speed information; the calculation speed information of the terminal device is used to indicate the computing power information that can be provided by the terminal device operation model; the service cell information of the terminal device may include at least one of the following information: cell global identifier (CGI), physical cell identifier (PCI) and frequency information, cell identifier (cell ID), non-public network identifier (NPN ID), non-terrestrial network identifier (NTN ID) or other cell identifiers. For example, the CGI may include a public land mobile network (PLMN ID) and a cell ID. Optionally, the cell information may also include a tracking area code (TAC) and / or identification information of the network device to which the cell belongs, such as a global network device identification; the channel model information between the terminal device and the network device includes a line of sight (LOS) model or a non-line of sight (NLOS) model and other related information; it is understandable that the terminal device (UE) environment information and / or configuration information may also include other information, which is not limited in this application.

[0074] For example, the "terminal equipment (UE) environment information and / or configuration information" can be specific environment information and / or configuration information, or it can be an identifier or index information corresponding to the environment information and / or configuration information. Based on the identifier or index information, the corresponding specific environment information and / or configuration information can be determined. For example, the correspondence between the terminal equipment environment information and / or configuration information and its identifier or index information is determined by a predetermined protocol, or by a terminal equipment, or a management device of the terminal equipment (for example, a terminal manufacturer's management device, an OTT server, a terminal chip manufacturer's management device, or at least one of OAM). When the first device receives the above-mentioned identifier or index information, it can determine the terminal equipment environment information and / or configuration information corresponding to the above-mentioned identifier or index information based on the corresponding relationship predefined by the protocol, or through the corresponding relationship obtained from other devices (for example, a terminal equipment, a terminal equipment management device, a core network device, an OAM, or at least one of other network devices).

[0075] In some embodiments, the network device (NW) environment information and / or configuration information includes at least one of the following information: antenna configuration information of the network device; beam configuration information of the network device; coverage configuration information of the network device; and status information of the network device.

[0076] For example, the antenna configuration information of the network device may include at least one configuration information such as the tilt angle information under the antenna, the number of antennas, analog antennas, digital antennas, physical antennas, etc.; the beam configuration information of the network device may include at least one configuration information such as beam width information, the number of beams, beam identification information, beam index information, beam scanning information, etc.; the coverage configuration information of the network device may include frequency information, maximum transmit power information, coverage range information, indoor, outdoor, etc., etc.; and the status information of the network device may include at least one status information such as whether the capacity station and coverage station have enabled network energy saving, network energy saving configuration information, etc.; the network device (NW) environment information and / or configuration information may also include other information, which is not limited in this application.

[0077] For example, the "network device (NW) environment information and / or configuration information" can be specific environment information and / or configuration information, or it can be identification or index information corresponding to the environment information and / or configuration information. For example, the correspondence between the network device environment information and / or configuration information and its identification or index information is determined by a predetermined protocol, or by a management device of the network device (for example, a core network device, at least one of OAM). When other devices receive the above-mentioned identification or index information, they can determine the network device environment information and / or configuration information corresponding to the above-mentioned identification or index information based on the correspondence predefined by the protocol or through the obtained correspondence. As an example, the first device can send network device environment information and / or configuration information to the terminal device, so that when the terminal device reports data, it can further report the network device environment information and / or configuration information corresponding to the data.

[0078] In some embodiments, the terminal device (UE) location information, for example, in a cell-level scenario, the terminal device can obtain the location information of the terminal device (UE) through positioning, etc.; or, the location range information of the terminal device (UE) can also be obtained through signal quality information, etc., which is not limited in this application.

[0079] In some embodiments, the identity information of the terminal device (UE) and / or network device (NW) includes at least one of the following: terminal device manufacturer information; terminal device chip manufacturer information; network device network manufacturer information; and operator information. By introducing identity information, the privacy of relevant data and models trained based on the relevant data can be guaranteed. For example, data and / or models can be shared only between terminal devices and / or network devices indicated by the corresponding identity information.

[0080] In some embodiments, the method further includes: the terminal device sending the collected artificial intelligence-related data to the first device. The artificial intelligence-related data can be at least one of L1 and / or L3 measurement result information and ground truth.

[0081] For example, the terminal device may send artificial intelligence-related data and terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information to the first device through multiple signalings respectively, or the terminal device may send artificial intelligence-related data and terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information to the first device through one signaling.

[0082] For example, taking the CSI enhancement scenario as an example, the artificial intelligence related data sent by the terminal device includes at least one of the following data: channel quality indicator (CQI), precoding matrix indicator (PMI), CSI-RS resource indicator (CSI Reference Signal Resource Indicator, CRI, CSI reference information number resource indicator), SS / PBCH block resource indicator (SS / PBCH Block Resource Indicator, SSBRI), layer indicator (LI), channel matrix (channel matrix), right singular vectors of the channel matrix (right singular vectors of the channel matrix), rank indicator (RI), L1-RSRP, L1-SINR, true value or other L1 measurement result information, etc.; beam Taking management as an example, the artificial intelligence-related data sent by the terminal device includes at least one of the following data: precoding matrix, original channel matrix, scalar quantization information, codebook-based quantization information, beam measurement result information, true value or other measurement result information, etc.; for example, the artificial intelligence-related data sent by the terminal device may also include other data, and this application does not limit this.

[0083] In some embodiments, the terminal device sends artificial intelligence related data in the following ways: immediate sending, cache sending, or sending based on a request from a network device.

[0084] For example, immediate sending means that the terminal device collects artificial intelligence-related data and sends it to the network device in real time; cache sending means that the terminal device does not report the artificial intelligence-related data to the network device immediately after collecting it. For example, the terminal device collects multiple artificial intelligence-related data within a period of time and then reports them to the network device in a unified manner; sending based on the request of the network device means that when the terminal device receives the artificial intelligence-related data reporting request indication information of the network device, the terminal device sends the corresponding artificial intelligence-related data to the network device.

[0085] In some embodiments, the method further includes: the terminal device also sends generation time information of the artificial intelligence-related data to the first device.

[0086] For example, in the case where the terminal device does not immediately send the collected artificial intelligence-related data, the terminal device may also indicate the generation time information of each piece of artificial intelligence-related data.

[0087] As a possible implementation method, the terminal device reports the absolute time information when the first or last artificial intelligence-related data is generated, as well as the relative time information of other artificial intelligence-related data relative to the absolute time information; or, the terminal device reports the absolute time information when each artificial intelligence-related data is generated, etc.

[0088] Therefore, when the network device receives the artificial intelligence-related data sent by the terminal device, as well as the auxiliary information of the terminal device corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data, and / or the generation time information of the auxiliary information of the terminal device corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data, the network device can further determine and / or supplement the auxiliary information of the network device corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data, thereby managing the artificial intelligence-related data more specifically; for example, when the terminal device reports the generation time information of the artificial intelligence-related data, when the network device (for example, the first device) updates the auxiliary information of the network device, the network device (for example, the first device) can identify the auxiliary information of the network device when the artificial intelligence-related data of the terminal device is generated based on the above-mentioned generation time information, and can manage the artificial intelligence-related data more accurately and improve the reliability of data management.

[0089] In some embodiments, the method further comprises:

[0090] 103: The terminal device sends the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information to the first device.

[0091] It is understandable that FIG1 is only an exemplary illustration, and step 103 is an optional step. Step 103 may be performed before step 101, after step 101, or not at all. The embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0092] For example, the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information is used to indicate the artificial intelligence-related data collection capabilities supported by the terminal device.

[0093] For example, the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information can be represented by a 1-bit information element. When the information element is included, it indicates the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability supported by the terminal device; and / or, when the information element is not included, it indicates the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability that the terminal device does not support. Alternatively, when the bit value of the information element is a first value, it indicates the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability supported by the terminal device, and / or, when the bit value is a second value, it indicates the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability that the terminal device does not support. As an example, the first value can be 1 and the second value can be 0; or, the first value can be 0 and the second value can be 1, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0094] After the above detailed description of "terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information", the "first information" of this application and the interaction between the terminal device and the first device are described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments:

[0095] (1) Example 1

[0096] In this embodiment, taking FIG. 2 as an example, the first device involved may be a base station or a CU or other access network device, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0097] In some embodiments, the first information includes first indication information, and the terminal device reports the terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data when the artificial intelligence-related data is generated according to the first indication information.

[0098] FIG2 is a schematic diagram of information interaction between a terminal device and a first device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG2 , the method includes:

[0099] 201. The first device sends first indication information to the terminal device;

[0100] 202. The terminal device reports to the first device the terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence related data when the artificial intelligence related data is generated.

[0101] As a possible implementation method, the "first indication information" in step 201 can be carried by an artificial intelligence-related data collection request message, or the "first indication information" can also be carried by other messages, and this application does not limit this; as a possible implementation method, the terminal device auxiliary information in step 201 can be carried by a message of artificial intelligence-related data reported by the terminal device, or the terminal device auxiliary information can also be carried by other messages, and this application does not limit this.

[0102] In some embodiments, before step 201 (not shown), the first device can also obtain information about the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection capability. The first device can receive information about the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection capability sent by the terminal device, a core network device, or other access network device other than the first device. Details of "information about the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection capability" can be found in the aforementioned embodiments and are not repeated here.

[0103] In some embodiments, the first device can obtain network device auxiliary information. For example, the first device can obtain auxiliary information of the current first device itself.

[0104] In some embodiments, after or during step 202 (not shown), the terminal device further transmits information about the generation time of the artificial intelligence-related data to the first device. This generation time information can be used by the first device to determine the auxiliary information of the network device when the artificial intelligence-related data was generated. For example, if the terminal device reports the generation time information of the artificial intelligence-related data, when the first device updates the auxiliary information of the network device, the first device can identify the auxiliary information of the network device when the artificial intelligence-related data of the terminal device was generated based on the generation time information, thereby enabling more accurate management of the artificial intelligence-related data and improving the reliability of data management.

[0105] In some embodiments, after step 202 (not shown), when the first device receives the AI-related data sent by the terminal device, as well as the auxiliary information of the terminal device corresponding to the AI-related data, and / or the generation time information of the auxiliary information of the terminal device corresponding to the AI-related data, the first device may optionally further determine and / or supplement the auxiliary information of the network device corresponding to the AI-related data. This enables more targeted management of the AI-related data.

[0106] (II) Example 2

[0107] In this embodiment, taking FIG. 3 as an example, the first device involved may be a base station or a CU or other access network device, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0108] In some embodiments, the first information includes the current network device auxiliary information of the first device, and the terminal device reports the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data when the artificial intelligence-related data is generated based on the current network device auxiliary information of the first device.

[0109] FIG3 is another schematic diagram of information interaction between a terminal device and a first device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG3 , the method includes:

[0110] 301. The first device sends the current network device auxiliary information of the first device to the terminal device;

[0111] 302. The terminal device reports the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence related data when the artificial intelligence related data is generated according to the current network device auxiliary information of the first device.

[0112] As a possible implementation method, the above-mentioned network device auxiliary information in step 301 can be carried by an artificial intelligence-related data collection request message sent by the first device to the terminal device, or the network device auxiliary information can also be carried by other messages, and this application does not limit this; as a possible implementation method, the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information in step 302 can be carried by a message of artificial intelligence-related data reported by the terminal device, or it can also be carried by other messages, and this application does not limit this.

[0113] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG3 , the first information may further include first indication information. The specific content of the first indication information is described in Example 1 and is not further described here. Accordingly, in step 301, the "current network device auxiliary information of the first device" and the "first indication information" (not shown) are sent.

[0114] In some embodiments, before the above step 301 (not shown), the first device may also obtain artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information of the terminal device, for example, the same as in Example 1, which will not be repeated here.

[0115] In some embodiments, the first device is capable of obtaining network device auxiliary information, for example, the same as in Example 1, and will not be repeated here.

[0116] In some embodiments, after the above step 302 or during the above step 302 (not shown), the terminal device also sends the generation time information of the artificial intelligence-related data to the first device, for example, the same as Example 1, and will not be repeated here.

[0117] (III) Example 3

[0118] In this embodiment, taking FIG. 4 as an example, the first device involved may be a base station or a CU or other access network device, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0119] In some embodiments, the first information includes terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device.

[0120] In some embodiments, when the terminal device determines that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device, the terminal device reports to the first device the terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data when the artificial intelligence-related data is generated, and / or a confirmation message, wherein the confirmation message is used to indicate that the terminal device determines that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device; and / or, when the terminal device determines that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information is inconsistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device, the terminal device sends an artificial intelligence-related data collection configuration failure message to the first device.

[0121] FIG4 is another schematic diagram of information interaction between a terminal device and a first device in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG4 , the method includes:

[0122] 401. The first device sends the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device to the terminal device;

[0123] 402. The terminal device determines whether the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information of the terminal device is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device;

[0124] It is understandable that in step 403, the terminal device determines whether the at least one terminal device auxiliary information currently stored by the terminal device is the same type of terminal device auxiliary information as the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device. For example, the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device is {low speed, indoor}, and the terminal device auxiliary information currently stored on the terminal device side is {low speed, indoor, LOS}. The terminal device needs to determine whether the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device is speed information and environmental information. Therefore, the terminal device only needs to determine whether the current speed and / or environmental information of the terminal device is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device.

[0125] 403. When the terminal device determines that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device, the terminal device reports to the first device the terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data when the artificial intelligence-related data was generated; and / or the terminal device sends a confirmation message to the first device, where the confirmation message is used to indicate that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information of the terminal device is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device;

[0126] Furthermore, after step 403 (not shown), the terminal device may also send artificial intelligence related data to the first device.

[0127] For example, still taking the example that the terminal device auxiliary information required by the above-mentioned first device is {low speed, indoor} and the current terminal device auxiliary information on the terminal device side is {low speed, indoor, LOS}, the terminal device determines that the current speed information {low speed} of the terminal device is consistent with the speed information {low speed} in the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first network device, and / or the terminal device determines that the current environment information {indoor} of the terminal device is consistent with the environment information {indoor} in the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first network device, and the terminal device reports the terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence related data when the artificial intelligence related data is generated to the first device, and / or sends a confirmation message to the first device.

[0128] 404. When the terminal device determines that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information is inconsistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device, the terminal device sends an artificial intelligence related data collection configuration failure message to the first device.

[0129] For example, the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device is {low speed, indoor}, and the current terminal device auxiliary information on the terminal device side is {serving cell (PCI), LOS}, or {high speed, indoor}. The terminal device determines that the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device is inconsistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device, and the terminal device sends an artificial intelligence-related data collection configuration failure message to the first device.

[0130] As a possible implementation method, the required terminal device auxiliary information in step 401 can be carried through an artificial intelligence-related data collection request message, or the required terminal device auxiliary information can also be carried through other messages. This application does not limit this; as a possible implementation method, the reporting method of the terminal device auxiliary information in step 403 can refer to the description of step 202 and will not be repeated here.

[0131] In some embodiments, when the terminal device determines that the current at least one terminal device auxiliary information is consistent with the terminal device auxiliary information required by the first device, the terminal device may also send an artificial intelligence-related data collection configuration completion message to the first device.

[0132] In some embodiments, the first device is capable of obtaining network device auxiliary information, for example, the same as in Example 1, and will not be repeated here.

[0133] In some embodiments, before the above step 401 (not shown), the first device can also obtain the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information. The corresponding details can be found in the above implementation method and will not be repeated here.

[0134] (IV) Example 4

[0135] In this embodiment, taking FIG. 5 as an example, the first device involved may be a base station or a CU or other access network device, but the embodiment of the present application is not limited thereto.

[0136] In some embodiments, the first information includes first request indication information, and the terminal device reports the current terminal device auxiliary information of the terminal device according to the first request indication information.

[0137] In some embodiments, the terminal device further receives reporting configuration information sent by the first device, wherein the reporting configuration information is used to indicate the auxiliary information reporting configuration of the terminal device.

[0138] In some embodiments, the reporting configuration information includes at least one terminal device auxiliary information change reporting indication information and / or at least one terminal device auxiliary information change threshold information.

[0139] In some embodiments, the reporting configuration information includes at least one terminal device auxiliary information change reporting indication information and / or at least one terminal device auxiliary information change threshold information.

[0140] In some embodiments, when the reported configuration information includes change reporting indication information of at least one terminal device auxiliary information, when at least one terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the change reporting indication information of the terminal device is updated, the terminal device sends the updated at least one terminal device auxiliary information to the first device; and / or, when the reported configuration information includes change threshold information of at least one terminal device auxiliary information, when the update of the at least one terminal device auxiliary information of the terminal device meets the threshold information, the terminal device sends the updated at least one terminal device auxiliary information to the first device.

[0141] FIG5 is another schematic diagram of information interaction between the terminal device and the first device in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG5 , the method includes:

[0142] 501, the first device sends first request indication information to the terminal device;

[0143] 502. The terminal device reports the current terminal device auxiliary information of the terminal device according to the first request indication information;

[0144] 503. The first device determines to request the terminal device to perform artificial intelligence related data collection;

[0145] 504. The terminal device sends the collected artificial intelligence related data to the first device.

[0146] As a possible implementation method, the "first request indication information" can be carried through an artificial intelligence-related data collection request message, or the "first request indication information" can also be carried through other messages. This application does not limit this.

[0147] In some embodiments, before or after step 501 (not shown), embodiments of the present application may further include: the terminal device receiving reporting configuration information sent by the first device, wherein the reporting configuration information is used to indicate the auxiliary information reporting configuration of the terminal device. In some possible implementations, the reporting configuration information includes at least one terminal device auxiliary information change reporting indication information and / or at least one terminal device auxiliary information change threshold information.

[0148] In some possible implementations, when the reported configuration information includes change reporting indication information of at least one terminal device auxiliary information, when at least one terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the change reporting indication information of the terminal device is updated, the terminal device sends the updated at least one terminal device auxiliary information to the first device; and / or, when the reported configuration information includes change threshold information of at least one terminal device auxiliary information, when the update of the at least one terminal device auxiliary information of the terminal device meets the threshold information, the terminal device sends the updated at least one terminal device auxiliary information to the first device.

[0149] For example, the reported configuration information includes at least one terminal device auxiliary information change reporting indication information as an example, wherein the terminal device auxiliary information is environmental information, and the environmental information can be indoor / outdoor. If the terminal device receives the above-mentioned environmental information change reporting indication information, when the terminal device's environmental information changes between indoor / outdoor, the terminal device reports the updated terminal device (UE) auxiliary information, that is, the updated environmental information, to the first device. As a possible implementation method, the reporting configuration information can be an information element (IE): "Reporting triggering" and set to "environment change". If the current environmental information of the terminal device is indoor, when the terminal device's environmental information changes to outdoor, the terminal device sends new terminal device auxiliary information to the first device, and the terminal device auxiliary information includes indication information for indicating that the terminal device's environmental information has changed, the latter including outdoor; if the terminal device's environmental information changes to indoor, the terminal device sends new terminal device auxiliary information to the first device, and the terminal device auxiliary information includes indication information for indicating that the terminal device's environmental information has changed, the latter including indoor.

[0150] In some possible implementations, a piece of terminal device auxiliary information may correspond to a piece of terminal device auxiliary information change threshold information, for example, the terminal device auxiliary information change threshold information corresponding to the predefined terminal device auxiliary information.

[0151] In some possible implementations, the update of at least one terminal device auxiliary information satisfies the threshold information, including: the change of at least one terminal device auxiliary information is greater than or greater than or equal to the threshold corresponding to the terminal device auxiliary information, or the change of at least one terminal device auxiliary information is equal to the threshold corresponding to the terminal device auxiliary information, or the change of at least one terminal device auxiliary information is less than or less than or equal to the threshold corresponding to the terminal device auxiliary information, etc. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0152] For example, the reported configuration information includes at least one terminal device auxiliary information change threshold information as an example, wherein the terminal device auxiliary information is speed information, the speed information can be high speed (>10KM / H) / low speed (≤10KM / H), and the threshold value of the speed information is 10KM / H, and its corresponding threshold information is represented by the threshold index "threshold 20". When the speed information of the terminal device changes between high speed (>10KM / H) / low speed (≤10KM / H), when the threshold information "threshold 20" is met, the terminal device reports the updated terminal device (UE) auxiliary information, that is, the updated speed information, to the first device. As a possible implementation method, the reporting configuration information can be an information element (IE): "Reporting triggering" and set to "speed change threshold 20". If the current speed information of the terminal device is high speed (>10KM / H), when the speed information of the terminal device changes to low speed (≤10KM / H), the threshold information is met, and the terminal device sends new terminal device auxiliary information to the first device. The terminal device auxiliary information includes indication information for indicating that the speed information of the terminal device has changed, for example, indicating low speed (≤10KM / H); if the current speed information of the terminal device is low speed (≤10KM / H), when the speed information of the terminal device changes to high speed (>10KM / H), the threshold information is met, and the terminal device sends new terminal device auxiliary information to the first device. The terminal device auxiliary information includes indication information for indicating that the speed information of the terminal device has changed, for example, indicating low speed (>10KM / H).

[0153] In some embodiments, the first device is capable of obtaining network device auxiliary information, for example, the same as in Example 1, and will not be repeated here.

[0154] In some embodiments, after step 504 above, the first device can determine and / or supplement the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the collected artificial intelligence-related data.

[0155] The above embodiments are merely exemplary descriptions of the methods of the present application, but the present application is not limited thereto, and appropriate modifications may be made based on the above embodiments. For example, the above embodiments may be used individually, or one or more of the above embodiments may be combined.

[0156] According to the above embodiment, the terminal device sends terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information to the first device based on the first information sent by the first device, so that the first device can better classify the received artificial intelligence-related data according to each auxiliary information, thereby training a more targeted model; and the first device can determine the applicable information of the trained model based on each auxiliary information, so that the model is deployed as much as possible in the configuration and / or environment indicated by the applicable information, thereby obtaining better model reasoning performance.

[0158] An embodiment of the present application provides a method for sending and receiving information, which is described from the side of the second device. The contents that are the same as those of the embodiment of the first aspect will not be repeated; the "embodiment of the second aspect" of this application can be implemented in combination with the "embodiment of the first aspect" or can be implemented separately.

[0159] FIG6 is a schematic diagram of a method for sending and receiving information according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG6 , the method includes:

[0160] 601, the second device sends second information to the first device;

[0161] 602. The second device receives the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information sent by the first device according to the second information.

[0162] According to the above embodiment, the second device is capable of receiving the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information sent by the first device.

[0163] In some embodiments, the description of "terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information" refers to the relevant description of the embodiment of the first aspect and will not be repeated here.

[0164] In some embodiments, the description of the "first device" refers to the relevant description of the embodiment of the first aspect and is not repeated here. For example, the "first device" may be the same as the "first device" in the embodiment of the first aspect. Optionally, the "first device" may also be different from the "first device" in the embodiment of the first aspect.

[0165] In some embodiments, the "second device" may be a core network device, such as an OAM. Optionally, the "second device" may also be other access network devices, access network device management devices, or OTT servers, etc. This application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0166] In some embodiments, the second device may also send artificial intelligence-related data collection activation information to the first device.

[0167] For example, the second device may send the artificial intelligence-related data collection activation information and the second information to the first device through multiple signalings, or the second device may send the artificial intelligence-related data collection activation information and the second information to the first device through one signaling.

[0168] In some embodiments, the method comprises:

[0169] 603. The second device receives the collected artificial intelligence-related data sent by the first device.

[0170] The artificial intelligence-related data received by the second device may be artificial intelligence-related data of the terminal device and / or artificial intelligence-related data of the first device.

[0171] It is understandable that FIG6 is only an exemplary illustration, and step 603 is an optional step. Step 603 may be executed or not executed, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited thereto.

[0172] As a possible implementation method, when the artificial intelligence-related data received by the second device is the artificial intelligence-related data of the terminal device, the first device needs to configure the terminal device to report the data corresponding to the terminal device auxiliary information and / or the network device auxiliary information in step 601; as a possible implementation method, the mechanism for the first device to collect the terminal device auxiliary information and / or the network device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data of the terminal device can refer to the method in the "Implementation of the First Aspect" and will not be repeated here.

[0174] In some embodiments, the first device receives artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information of the terminal device sent by the terminal device or other access network devices or core network devices or OAM or OTT servers or access network device management devices other than the first device. The artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information is used to indicate the artificial intelligence-related data collection capability supported by the terminal device.

[0175] As an example, the "artificial intelligence-related data collection permission information" can be represented by a 1-bit information element. When the information element is included, it indicates that the terminal device is willing to perform artificial intelligence-related data collection; and / or, when the information element is not included, it indicates that the terminal device is unwilling to perform artificial intelligence-related data collection. Alternatively, when the bit value of the information element is a first value, it indicates that the terminal device is willing to perform artificial intelligence-related data collection, and / or, when the bit value is a second value, it indicates that the terminal device is willing to perform artificial intelligence-related data collection. As an example, the first value can be 1 and the second value can be 0; or, the first value can be 0 and the second value can be 1, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this; alternatively, the "artificial intelligence-related data collection permission information" can be represented by a multi-bit information element. When the information element is included, it indicates regional information used to indicate that the terminal device is willing to perform artificial intelligence-related data collection, and when the information element is not included, it indicates that the terminal device is unwilling to perform artificial intelligence-related data collection.

[0176] In some embodiments, the first device configures the terminal device to perform AI-related data collection based on at least one of the second information, the AI-related data collection capability information, and the AI-related data collection permission information. "Configuring the terminal device to perform AI-related data collection" will be described below in conjunction with the specific content of the second information, such as in steps 704 and 804 below.

[0177] The following describes in detail the "second information" of this application and the interaction between the first device and the second device with reference to specific embodiments:

[0178] (V) Example 5

[0179] In this embodiment, taking Figure 7 as an example, the first device involved can be a base station or CU or other access network device, and the second device involved can be at least one of OAM, OTT server, access network device management device, etc. The embodiment of this application is not limited to this.

[0180] In some embodiments, the second information includes second indication information, which requests the first device to report terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the collected artificial intelligence-related data.

[0181] FIG7 is a schematic diagram of information interaction between a first device and a second device in an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG7 , the method includes:

[0188] As a possible implementation, please refer to the relevant content in the "Implementation Examples of the First Aspect" regarding the interaction of "terminal device auxiliary information" and "artificial intelligence-related data collection" between the first device and the terminal device. For example, through at least one of "Implementation Examples 1" to "Implementation Examples 4" in the "Implementation Examples of the First Aspect", the first device obtains artificial intelligence-related data reported by the terminal device, the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the data, and then sends the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the artificial intelligence-related data to the second device in a subsequent step 705.

[0189] 705. The second device receives the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information sent by the first device based on the second information, and / or the second device can also receive the collected artificial intelligence related data sent by the first device.

[0193] In some embodiments, the second information also includes validity time information, which is used to indicate the validity time of the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information required above.

[0194] In some embodiments, when the second information includes network device auxiliary information required by the second device, when the first device determines that the current at least one network device auxiliary information is consistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, the first device determines to collect artificial intelligence-related data corresponding to the network device auxiliary information; or, when the second information includes terminal device auxiliary information and network device auxiliary information required by the second device, when the first device determines that the current at least one network device auxiliary information is consistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, the first device determines to collect artificial intelligence-related data corresponding to the terminal device auxiliary information and the network device auxiliary information.

[0195] FIG8 is another schematic diagram of information interaction between a first device and a second device according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown in FIG8 , the method includes:

[0196] 801: The first device receives the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection capability information and / or the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data collection permission information sent by the AMF entity.

[0198] 803. The second device sends required terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information to the first device;

[0200] Optionally, the method may further include: 804, the first device configuring the terminal device to perform the above-mentioned artificial intelligence-related data collection;

[0201] For example, in the case where the second information includes the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, when the first device determines that the current at least one network device auxiliary information is consistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, the first device determines to collect the artificial intelligence-related data corresponding to the network device auxiliary information; or, in the case where the second information includes the terminal device auxiliary information and network device auxiliary information required by the second device, when the first device determines that the current at least one network device auxiliary information is consistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, the first device determines to collect the terminal device auxiliary information and the artificial intelligence-related data corresponding to the network device auxiliary information. “How the first device determines to collect the artificial intelligence-related data corresponding to the network device auxiliary information” or “How the first device determines to collect the artificial intelligence-related data corresponding to the terminal device auxiliary information and the network device auxiliary information” can be found in the “Implementation of the First Aspect” and the relevant content in “704” above, and will not be repeated here;

[0202] As a possible implementation method, please refer to the relevant content in the "Implementation of the First Aspect" for the interaction of "terminal device auxiliary information" and "artificial intelligence-related data collection" between the first device and the terminal device. For example, for "Implementation 1" to "Implementation 3" in the "Implementation of the First Aspect", the first device requests the terminal device to report "terminal device auxiliary information" and collect terminal device artificial intelligence-related data. Then, when the first device determines that at least one "terminal device auxiliary information" reported by the terminal device corresponds to the "terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the terminal device artificial intelligence-related data that needs to be collected" indicated by the second device, the first device determines that the corresponding artificial intelligence-related data can be sent to the second device (for example, subsequent step 805). Optionally, the first device may also send the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the data (for example, subsequent step 805). For another example, in "Example 4" of the "Examples of the First Aspect," a first device receives "terminal device auxiliary information" reported by a terminal device. If the first device determines that at least one type of "terminal device auxiliary information" reported by the terminal device corresponds to the "terminal device auxiliary information corresponding to the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data that needs to be collected" indicated by the second device, the first device configures the terminal device to collect the terminal device's artificial intelligence-related data, and then sends the collected artificial intelligence-related data to the second device in a subsequent step 805. Optionally, the first device may also send the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information corresponding to the data (e.g., in a subsequent step 805).

[0203] Optionally, when the first device determines that the current at least one network device auxiliary information is inconsistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, the first device may feedback artificial intelligence related data collection failure information to the second device.

[0204] Furthermore, if the second information includes valid time information, the first device may confirm whether the network device auxiliary information of the first device is consistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device within the valid time indicated by the valid time information, or the running time of the timer corresponding to the valid time information. When the first device determines that the current at least one network device auxiliary information is consistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, the first device performs the corresponding artificial intelligence-related data collection. Please refer to the relevant content in the "Implementation of the First Aspect", which will not be repeated here. When the time indicated by the valid time information ends, or the timer corresponding to the valid time information expires, the first device determines that its at least one network device auxiliary information is inconsistent with the network device auxiliary information required by the second device, and the first device may feedback artificial intelligence-related data collection failure information to the second device.

[0205] 805. The second device receives the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information sent by the first device based on the second information, and / or the second device can also receive the collected artificial intelligence related data sent by the first device.

[0206] The above embodiments are merely exemplary descriptions of the methods of the present application, but the present application is not limited thereto, and appropriate modifications may be made based on the above embodiments. For example, the above embodiments may be used individually, or one or more of the above embodiments may be combined.

[0207] According to the above embodiment, the second device is capable of receiving the terminal device auxiliary information and / or network device auxiliary information sent by the first device.
